I'm sorry, after digging in it for a while I'm really lost.  This
pinctrl file should be there _instead_ of the gpio file or in addition
to it?  I see tegra has both, but u300 has only one.

Also, this pinctrl depends on CONFIG_EXPERIMENTAL at this point in time.
Is it wise the make the whole sta2x11 thing depend on experimental?

Thanks
